Rolling Stone has published a new list of the 250 best songs of the 21st century so far, and the music magazine included a whopping two metal songs in the roundup.

The first metal appearance on the list goes to Mastodon, whose 2004 Leviathan track “Blood and Thunder” landed at No. 230. Slightly higher up the list at No. 174 was System of a Down’s “Chop Suey!,” off 2001’s Toxicity.

These two inclusions are consistent with Rolling Stone‘s list of the 250 best albums of the 21st century so far, published at the beginning of the year. That list also included a mere two metal albums — the parent albums of the songs on the new list. Rolling Stone deemed Leviathan the 171st best album of the past quarter-century, while Toxicity arrived at No. 159.

The Rock Songs on Rolling Stone‘s Best of the 21st Century List

Rock fared better than metal on Rolling Stone‘s new list, with dozens of era-defining tracks scattered throughout the ranking. Green Day’s pop-punk epic “Jesus of Suburbia” landed at No. 205, Evanescence’s goth-rock smash “Bring Me to Life” arrived at No. 195 and My Chemical Romance’s glam-emo anthem “Welcome to the Black Parade” clocked in at No. 96.

Higher up the list, more pop-punk and garage rock revival songs got their due, such as Fall Out Boy’s “Sugar, We’re Goin Down” (No. 79), Paramore’s “Still Into You” (No. 63) and the Killers’ “Mr. Brightside” (No. 26).

The highest-ranking rock songs were the Strokes’ “Last Nite,” which reached No. 12, and the White Stripes’ “Seven Nation Army,” which landed at No. 4.
